Chapter 493: Chapter 491: It was I who brought her down_1

Mu Zisu wouldn’t bother with so much, he felt that he already knew Na Xiaoxiao, and to introduce them again was simply superfluous...

Na Xiaoxiao politely greeted Ji Hua and Gong Yining.

Gong Yining smiled and nodded, while Ji Hua remained motionless, sizing up Na Xiaoxiao from top to bottom; he wanted to see just how she’d managed to land Yaoyao, that oddball...

As he thought, he asked, "Xiaoxiao, right? Can you tell us how you managed to subdue Yaoyao, this odd one..."

No sooner had he spoken than several people around them suddenly looked exasperated...

When would he ever learn to filter his words?

Na Xiaoxiao wore a smile, but inwardly, she was groaning in frustration. How was she supposed to answer that?

How could she possibly have tamed him...?

As she was frantically thinking of a response, Mu Zisu casually spoke up, "Uncle Hua... it was me who subdued her..." If he allowed the rumor that this woman had tamed him to spread, it would only take one night for Uncle Hua’s big mouth to turn it into the talk of the town.

Na Xiaoxiao forced a dry laugh...

He subdued her?

Heh, actually, come to think of it, that was indeed the case...

Ji Hua looked at Mu Zisu in astonishment: "What? You made the first move?"

Mu Zisu raised an eyebrow and then nodded coolly: "Yeah."

Ji Hua shook his head in disbelief...

Mu Zisu chuckled, "We’ll go inside first..."

"Brother Zisu, I’ll come with you..." Ji Yunqing finally regained some sense of presence.

Mu Zisu nodded and then led the way inside.

Na Xiaoxiao hurriedly smiled at Gong Yining and the dazed Ji Hua, then quickly followed Mu Zisu.

Gong Yining, seeing Ji Hua’s dazed expression, couldn’t help but ask him, "What do you think? Wanxia’s daughter-in-law is not bad, right?"

"Wanxia’s daughter-in-law?" Ji Hua sensed something unusual.

Gong Yining quickly broke into an amused chuckle: "Yaoyao’s girlfriend, isn’t she going to be Wanxia’s future daughter-in-law?" She almost let something slip.

Ji Hua watched the backs of Mu Zisu and Na Xiaoxiao, and nodded, "Hmm, quite good..."

After Na Xiaoxiao followed Mu Zisu into the venue, he was immediately surrounded by people.

Their group of three, now joined by Ji Yunqing, was unquestionably popular.

She felt somewhat helpless, not sure whether she should stay by their side.

But then she remembered what he had said to her in the car before they arrived, and she dismissed the thought of slipping away.

He had told her to stay by his side, so that’s what she would do.

Everyone was quite curious about Na Xiaoxiao, who stayed close to Mu Zisu, as anyone he brought to a banquet must be no simple character.

But what they didn’t know was that Na Xiaoxiao was as plain as they came.

Mu Zisu usually had a stern face in public, but maybe because today was Ji Yunqing’s birthday, he didn’t look so unapproachable.

Finally, after dealing with one round of well-wishers, Ji Yunqing led him and Na Xiaoxiao to a relatively quiet seat.

At that moment, seated at the table were Mu Feng, Kang Xiaolan, and a Zhuo Rongxuan whom Na Xiaoxiao didn’t recognize--

Zhuo Rongxuan was a good friend of Mu Yingchen and naturally also had a good relationship with Mu Feng and Ji Hua. Today, he attended the banquet with the intention of visiting old friends, and it indeed wasn’t a wasted trip. Although the number of people was not enough, seeing one or two was also good.

The three of them were chatting and laughing when they saw Ji Yunqing bringing Mu Zisu over, and they all couldn’t help but show expressions of extreme surprise.

After being stunned for a moment, Kang Xiaolan suddenly stood up from her chair and looked at Mu Zisu, exclaiming repeatedly, "Yaoyao... how come you didn’t give us a heads-up before coming?"

"Why would I gave a heads-up?" Mu Zisu asked with a smile that was not quite a smile.

"So that we could be mentally prepared. You know we’re getting old, our hearts aren’t what they used to be. What if you scared us?" Kang Xiaolan said as she approached the three men.

Then, turning to look at Na Xiaoxiao who was beside Mu Zisu, "Yo~~ who is this young lady, so bright and spirited..."

Na Xiaoxiao felt somewhat embarrassed and greeted Kang Xiaolan with a smile.

Kang Xiaolan sized up Na Xiaoxiao and clicked her tongue, "Look at this face, it’s like you could pinch water out of it? Yaoyao... aren’t you going to hurry and introduce her to us..."

Mu Zisu tended to avoid Kang Xiaolan whenever he could, ever since he was little. If she caught him, it was really difficult to handle.

Sometimes, he couldn’t help but sigh in his heart, wondering why all of his mother’s friends were so clingy?

Helplessly, Mu Zisu smiled, "Na Xiaoxiao..."

Before he could continue, Kang Xiaolan exclaimed in surprise, "Na Xiaoxiao?" Oh my... So this spirited young lady is the daughter-in-law spoken of by Wanxia!

Not bad, not bad!

She really is quite a match for Yaoyao!

Mu Zisu looked at Kang Xiaolan’s unusual expression with suspicion, "What’s wrong, Aunt Lan?"

"Oh haha, nothing, just that the name is nice, and she’s good looking..." Kang Xiaolan said, laughing heartily at the pair.

In fact, Na Xiaoxiao had also been startled by Kang Xiaolan’s voice and her expression of astonishment just a moment ago.

She even thought this Aunt Lan knew her...

She smiled at Kang Xiaolan and followed Mu Zisu in calling her, "Thank you, Aunt Lan..."

Kang Xiaolan looked at Mu Zisu with a questioning expression and then turned to look at Na Xiaoxiao, before cautiously asking Mu Zisu, "Yaoyao... you two..."

Before she could finish her question, Ji Yunqing eagerly said, "Xiaoxiao is Brother Zisu’s girlfriend..."

The news stunned everyone present, even Mu Feng, who was seated at the table, was surprised.

Kang Xiaolan was shocked as well but did not overreact as Ji Hua did; after all, they knew some inside information, information that likely even the parties involved were unaware of.

She laughed, "A girlfriend, that’s good... Yaoyao... your taste is really something. One of these days, you should also help pick one out for my Ningning..."

The comment instantly made everyone cringe. Ningning?

He was already so big, yet the diminutive prefix wasn’t dropped...

If Mu Shiming were to hear his mother calling him that in front of everyone, he would definitely be distressed and touch his forehead: When would his esteemed mother stop causing such a fuss...

Mu Zisu’s lips curled up, "With you here... when would it be my turn to pick for him? Besides, if you’re waiting for me to pick, you might as well prepare for him to be single for life..."

Mu Zisu’s words suddenly left everyone speechless, turns out Mu Zisu also had a sense of humor...

Mu Zisu didn’t continue to beat around the bush with Kang Xiaolan and instead, approached the table to politely greet Mu Feng, "Uncle Feng..." Mu Feng had always been someone he admired since childhood, so he was always very polite to this uncle.

Mu Feng smiled and stood up from his seat, introducing the person beside him, "Come, Yaoyao, this is Chairman Zhuo from the Zhuo Family, a friend of your father and a few of your uncles..."
